Quiet Girl Chapter 3
Hey guys! Thank you to all of you who favorited and followed and my first review from ana rod! :D anyway here's chapter 3 :)
I don't own Twilight.
Bella POV
I didn't do much on Sunday; I worked on some homework, watched TV and did some chores around house. On Monday morning, I awoke to Alice in my room, picking out an outfit; I almost screamed when I saw her.
"How did you get in here?" I asked her.
"Charlie. Now get up and put this on," said Alice as she handed me my clothes. I quickly changed into some simple jeans, uggs, a grey button up cardigan, with a shirt underneath and a blue scarf and went down stairs for some breakfast.
"It's so simple but it looks fabulous on you," beamed Alice, I gave her a small smile as I ate my breakfast and Alice started to give me some tips on how to dress myself. I had to admit she had some good tips and I liked what she picked out, I looked good and it was casual and it wasn't flashy or anything but it looked like I had actually put effort in to getting dressed today.
"After school Rose and I will show you a few tips to do with your hair and make-up. I don't want to cover your face completely, but some mascara and eye liner could really make your eyes pop, and maybe do a few simple things with your hair," said Alice.
"Okay," I replied.
"Come on let's get you to school, Edward won't stop texting me asking where we are." We got in to Alice's car and went to school. When we got there I saw Edward with Jessica across the parking lot. She was giggling about something Edward said to her. I frowned I knew Edward just saw me as a friend, why would he see me as anything else? When we reached the group Edward quickly ran over to us. I looked back at Jessica who was glaring at us, Rosalie and Alice glared back.
"Hey Bella!" said Edward, "How was your Sunday?"
"It was okay I just did some homework and wasted my day away," I replied.
"You should have called me; we could have hung out; besides I missed you."
"Edward you saw me on Saturday," I said laughing.
"I know," he replied.
"You two are making me sick," said Emmet.
"Then go somewhere else," replied Edward.
"No you go, I was here first," argued Emmet.
"Fine, lets go Bella," and he dragged me away.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"I don't know...it will be an adventure!"
"Edward the last adventure we had, we almost got arrested by my own dad, and we got detention."
"Don't worry it won't be anything like that."
"Okay...but this better be a short adventure school starts in fifteen minutes."
"Don't worry." He ended up leading us to the forest, and then pretended to get lost. I made it to class with a minute spare; we were laughing the whole time as we ran back to school. We said our goodbyes at the door and I sat down, Jessica glared at me. I don't understand why she doesn't seem to like me; I've hardly spoken to her.
Class went by slowly, it was a work day and Mike decided that he wanted to spend the whole class with me, I tried to be polite but I really wanted to him to leave so I could do my work. When the bell rang, he started to walk me out, luckily Edward was there and he left. My next class was just as slow as the first; I was really looking forward to lunch. When the bell rang I quickly packed up and went to my locker to drop off my stuff, then headed to lunch. I was a bit surprised that Edward hadn't met up with me yet. I walked over to our table and saw Edward talking to a blonde girl; that explains it. I quietly sat down across Edward as she giggled about something he said.
"Hey Bella," said Edward turning away from the blonde, she frowned and looked at me.
"Hey Edward," I mumbled.
"How was class?" He asked.
"Good..."
"Oh ya, Bella this is Tanya, Tanya, Bella."
"It's nice to meet you," said Tanya.
"You too," I replied shifting uncomfortably. Luckily Rosalie and Emmet joined us.
Rosalie glared at Tanya and Tanya glared back, "what are you doing here?" sneered Tanya.
"I'm sitting here with my friends, what are doing here?" said Rosalie.
"I was talking to Edward here, until you showed up."
"If I throw a stick will you leave?" asked Rosalie who was clearly annoyed with her.
Emmet laughed, "Good one Rose!"
Tanya huffed, "I'll see you later Edward," and left.
Alice and Jasper sat down beside Emmet and me, "what was she doing here?" asked Alice, and from her tone I could tell she didn't like Tanya ether.
"Edward was talking to her," answered Rosalie.
"Edward, why do you even talk her?" asked Alice.
"She's an okay person to hang around with once you get to know her," Edward replied. Alice and Rosalie rolled their eyes.
"Hey Guys!" said a guy I didn't recognize.
"Hey Tyler," replied Edward.
"There's a party at La Push this Friday, you guys in?"
"Hell ya!" said Edward.
"Great! What about the rest of you guys?" Tyler asked.
"Nah man, I'm staying clean for football, I don't want to get tempted by anything," said Emmet.
"I don't want to go if Emmets not," said Rosalie.
"And Jazzy and I have a date Friday!" said Alice excitedly.
"What about you Bella?" asked Edward.
"I don't know..." I said. I've never been to a party; it's not really something I find interesting.
"Come Bella, I could drive you and you could get to know some more people," said Edward begging.
"No... I don't think Charlie would let me, and besides I have some homework I want to get done," I replied.
"Okay, well I'll see you guys around, I'll text you the details later Edward," said Tyler as he left.
"Okay, see you around," replied Edward. After that lunch went just a usual, Emmet and Jasper were bickering about something stupid as usual. Edward kept glancing at me and then Alice and Rosalie would start giggling; by the end of lunch my face was as red as a tomato. When Edward and I walked to biology, Edward was unusually quiet. I was about to ask him why but Jessica came over and started talking to him until the bell rang. I didn't really listen to what they were saying; all I know is that Jessica needs a bigger vocabulary and needs to stop giggling so much.
Class was boring, we took notes all class, and when the bell rang Jessica came back over and started complaining about the lecture we just had; Edward told me he would catch up with me after school.
I went to gym and quickly got changed in to my gym strip. Unfortunately, we're playing volleyball again. We got the poles up and I started walking towards the nets to try and help when I tripped and hit my head on the pole that holds the volley ball nets up.
"Oops, sorry Bella! I guess I didn't see you there," said Jessica.
Somehow, I don't believe her. I touched my head. I think I'm going to get a bump on my head from that fall.
"Miss Swan, are you okay?" asked the teacher.
"I'm okay," I replied.
"I'll take her to the office to get some ice," said Mike. He helped me up and then we headed off.
"So, are you going to the party this Friday?" asked Mike, I shook my head. "Me neither, there no fun anyway... So what are you doing Friday night?"
"Some homework," I replied.
"Oh well maybe you could ditch the homework till Saturday and we could go on a date."
"I don't know Mike; I have a lot of homework to do."
"Think about it."
"...I think it would better if I worked on it... Sorry."
"It's okay; we can always go a different day." We finally arrived at the office. I got some ice and we headed back. We walked past Edward's class room and he caught my eye. He smiled at me, and then his face paled. He raised his hand and got excused from class.
"Bella?! What happened to you?" asked Edward as he ran over to us.
"I tripped and hit my head..." I replied as I blushed.
Edward sighed, "What am I going to do with you?"
I laughed, "go back to class Edward," I said.
"Okay I'll see you after class," and he left. I looked over and saw Mike glaring at Edward.
"Well we should go back to class," I said a started walking again. Luckily when we got back the gym teacher let me sit out for the rest of class; thank goodness! I changed and went and sat on the bleachers and iced my head. After class the teacher talked to me, asking if Jessica was bullying me and my confidence in gym class. I simply told her that neither Jessica nor anyone else for that matter was bullying me and that I never was good at sports. I left blushing and saw Edward waiting for me, looking a bit upset.
"I heard that Jessica tripped you," said Edward as he met me at the gym doors. I shrugged, he sighed, "Bella-"
"Hey Edward," said Jessica. Edward glared at Jessica as she walked by; she looked sorry but as soon as Edward looked away she glared at me and walked away.
"Come on, let's go," said Edward and grabbed my hand. As he led me to my truck all I could think about was that he was holding my hand. Part of me was ecstatic; the other half was thinking why on earth does Edward keep touching me like this? Is this how friends treat each other? Is this how Edward treats his friends?
"Bella, you would tell if people were bothering you right?" Asked Edward, I nodded and looked down at my shoes. He lifted my chin up and stated in to my eyes for a few seconds, I couldn't look anyway, it was like my eyes were glued to him. "I'll see you tomorrow," he said.
"See you," I mumbled half dazed and got in to my truck and went home. I pulled in to my drive way when I suddenly remember that Alice and Rose wanted to come over today! I quickly pulled out my phone and called Alice.
"Hello?" answered Alice.
"Hey Alice it's me Bella."
"Oh hey Bella! Where are you parked anyway I don't see you anywhere."
"Um... I'm so sorry Alice I was talking to your brother and I completely forgot and went home."
I heard Alice giggling and talking to Rose, "we'll be there in less than ten minutes," and hanged up. I got out of my truck and went inside; and true to her word Alice and Rose got here in six minutes.
"Oh my god Bella, did you seriously forget?" asked Rose as she stepped in to my house.
I nodded and blushed furiously, "sorry."
They giggled, "You really like him don't you?" asked Alice.
"As a friend," I replied blushing more.
"Whatever you say Bella," said Rose.
"You know you two would make a great couple; and you're much better than all those other girls Edward hangs out with," said Alice. I nodded awkwardly unsure of what to say.
"Come on, let's go upstairs!" said Rose. After about an hour they showed me how to do my mascara, and showed me some very simple, easy, quick things to do with my hair, and a few tips on how to dress myself, we were done.
"Any questions?" asked Alice.
"No, I think you got it all," I said.
"Good. Now let's talk about you and Edward!" said Alice.
"Doesn't this bother you?" I asked Alice, "He's your brother."
"Yes but you two would be so cute together!" said Alice.
"Well there's not much to say..." I said.
"Well he likes you; but I don't know why he keeps talking to all those girls though," said Rose.
"Mike keeps asking me out," I blurted out.
"What!" They both said.
"He keeps asking me out, Mike,"
"I heard you... Do you like him?" asked Alice
"No," I replied.
"How many times has he asked you out?" asked Rose.
"Twice I think," I replied.
"Why didn't you tell us!" asked Rose.
"I don't know it slipped my mind I guess," I replied.
"Too busy thinking about Edward," teased Rose, I blushed.
"What would you do if he asked out?" asked Alice eagerly.
"I don't know..." I replied.
"Bella I'm home!" yelled Charlie.
"I'm up here!" I replied. I heard him walk up the stairs.
"Oh hello girls," he said as he walked in to my room.
"Hello Charlie," said Alice.
"I was just going to make some dinner; do you girls want to stay over?" He asked.
"Oh no thank you, another night perhaps. We were just leaving," said Alice. I walked them out, said my goodbyes to them and went to do some homework while I waited for dinner. An hour later Charlie called me down for dinner; he asked me a few questions about my day and then I washed up the dishes and went back upstairs. I finished my homework took a shower and went to bed.
When I got up in the morning I went downstairs and found a note from Charlie saying he had had to go to work early. I found some oatmeal to eat and then went upstairs to get dressed. When I got dressed I took a few of Alice and Roses tips and then headed out the door. When I got to my truck and got in and tried to start it. After a few failed attempts I realized it wasn't going to start so I decided to call Edward.
He picked up on the first ring, "hey Bella what's up?"
"Um, where you?" I asked.
"At home I'm just about to leave, why do you ask? Are you okay?"
"Yes I'm fine, just my truck won't start, can you give me a ride?"
"Of course, where are you?"
"At home."
"Okay I'll be there soon."
"Thank you Edward, I'll see you soon, bye."
"Bye."
I waited outside for a few minutes when I saw Edward's car; I walked over to the sidewalk to meet him. He pulled over and I hopped in.
"Hey," he said.
"Hey.."
"You look nice today, not that you don't look nice every day," he quickly added.
I blushed, "thanks," It was quiet for about a minute.
"Want to play truth or dare?" asked Edward out of the blue while driving.
"Edward we're in your car," I replied.
"So?"
"Um...okay truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"I dare you to...pull over at the next pedestrian we see and sing to them."
"Okay," he replied. It didn't take long to see someone and Edward pulled over his car and hopped out; I quickly pulled out my phone to record it. Edward walked over to an older lady, he grabbed her hand and went down on one knee and started singing the chorus of "Call Me Maybe," by Carly Rae Jepsen. He got about halfway through before the women started to walk away, Edward got up and followed her and kept singing; meanwhile I could barely contain myself from laughing. When he was finally done we hopped back in to his car.
"Bella, truth or dare?" He asked.
"Truth," I replied, I don't even want to know what he would make me do if I picked dare.
"Okay...who was your first kiss?" He asked, I blushed and looked around nervously, "you've not had your first kiss?" I shook my head, "that will change." Luckily we got to school because I had no idea what to say to that! What did he mean by 'that will change?'
When we reached everyone we were both laughing so hard I was about to cry.
"What are you two laughing about?" asked Emmet.
I pulled out my phone, "Here, watch this," and showed them the video of Edward singing to a stranger. Emmet burst out laughing.
"I can't believe you did that!" Exclaimed Emmet, Edward simply shrugged, "did you put it online?"
"No," I replied.
"Put it online!" said Emmet.
"Are you okay with that Edward?" I asked.
"Ya sure," he replied.
"Okay... There, it's online," I said.
"Cool," the bell rang, "well I'll see you guys at lunch," said Emmet and left. I looked over at Edward who was looking at Jessica as she waved him over.
"Um I'll see you at lunch Edward," I said.
"See you Bella," he replied and we headed off in separate directions. That boy really confuses me. We hang out and goof around like friends, and then I feel like he wants to be more than friends sometimes and then go goes off to Jessica... Maybe I should just forget about it, Edwards my friend.
Well there it is! I hope you guys liked it :) don't forget to leave a review! :D
